Prompt: Sunflower's Symbolism; Ace Attorney Anime Ending
Author's Note: Heavily inspired from the Anime's ending, and from what I can theorize on the meaning of the ending.
Will he finally let go of the past, and moved on? Will he finally place his feelings to a rest?
Will he finally see her as something more? Will he finally open his heart for her?
She is waiting, always waiting. She still waits for him, always waiting.
Both of them waits for something to happen. The thing they wait for is different.
She waits for him to finally love her. He waits for her to come back.
Like a fool of a woman, she never steps in his way. She never distracts him whenever she thinks of her.
Like a fool of a woman, she is stubbornly waiting in the sidelines. She never rushes him to stop thinking about her.
Like a fool of a woman, she never does something that will turn his head on her direction. She wants him to be drawn to her, somehow.
Ah, life is really, really cruel. Why must fate toy with her this way?
Maya Fey has slowly developed warm feelings for Phoenix Wright. Phoenix Wright hasn't stopped loving Mia Fey ever since.
Why must she fall in love with him, knowing fully well of his relationship with her sister? Why must she fall in love with him, knowing fully well how much he sees her sister in high regard?
Why must she always be late in everything? Late in arriving to her sister's office, late in seeing him as something more than just a friend.
Was it Pearly's fault for pairing her with him? Was it Pearly's fault for forcing him to be with her?
No. The answer it no.
Pearly wouldn't do that if she didn't sensed it from her. Pearly is a smart kid, she just wants to help.
Ever since she felt useless, she thought Nick hates him. She slacked off her training, she couldn't even contact Mia for him.
Alas, she was here. Lying on her futon, all alone.
Nick is probably thinking about Sis again. He always do that whenever he sleeps at night.
Will she risk their friendship and gamble her life? Do something drastic to make him forget about her?
No, that's not right! It's not real, it's fake!
Maya will wait for him, like how he waits for her. Maya will always love him, like he always loved her.
One day, that day will come. Her instincts tell her.
He will finally moved on from her. She will finally tell him to moved on.
Hopefully, as the days gone by, little by little, she will work her steps. Just be herself, be Maya Fey, be someone he knows from the start, never change.
She doesn't need to force him. She just need to do her part.
Yes, that's how he won over her sister's heart. That's how he managed to erase that man from her heart.
No, she won't erase her from his heart. She will only fill the void, the empty feeling, and let her love him.
She may be not as good as Mia, but she's herself. Maya will love Phoenix with all her heart.
